Final contract year: Muheim speaks on his HSV future | OneFootball

A prominent addition for HSV: After his extended vacation following the World Cup, Miro Muheim is back with his teammates.

For the Swiss international, this means not only the start of preparations for the new Bundesliga season, but also the beginning of the final year of his contract. The 28-year-old’s deal runs until the summer of 2027. What happens after that is still unclear.

There have been no concrete talks about an extension so far. According to Hamburger Abendblatt, however, HSV plans to sit down with their long-serving key player soon to discuss their shared future. Muheim himself, however, is still keeping quiet on the matter.

“I’ve just been on vacation and haven’t thought about it yet,” the left-back said after returning to the training camp. “All I can say is that I really like the club and feel comfortable here. I can’t say much more about it yet.”

Muheim praises HSV jewel Lemke

So after five years together, the club and player are facing a pivotal decision. Since his move from FC St. Gallen in 2021, Muheim has developed into a fixture at HSV. After four years in the 2. Bundesliga, he also impressed for long stretches of last season in the top flight and was one of the team’s true ever-presents.

Most recently, Muheim also gained valuable experience at the 2026 World Cup. Despite a difficult start to the tournament, including an injury and an own goal in the opening match against Qatar (1:1), he looks back on the competition positively. “It was an incredible experience. A dream come true,” said the left-footer. He says he will especially remember the clash with superstar Lionel Messi and the Swiss team’s historic run to the quarter-finals.

Back at HSV, Muheim is now facing competition from just 16-year-old Louis Lemke. The teenager has drawn attention with impressive performances in the preseason friendlies so far. Muheim, who is eleven years older, has been following his development closely: “I heard he did very well. He is always open to advice. A good and kind lad who listens and learns a lot, and quickly.”
